Job hunting .....again!

After 6.5 months in my current role, I have a little over a month to go and ... I'm finished here.
Going to miss it.. The hours were perfect (7-3), the location is perfect, but it was always going to be an 8 month contract so ... Time to move on.
The idea of taking short term contract roles was so I could work the majority of the year and then take off the whopping 8 weeks that the private schools have off over the Christmas break.. Hopefully it works out that I can take some time off, but reality is that I need to work to pay the school fees and Greta's pre school fees - which closes down for 4 weeks over Christmas - so may (I hope not though) have to start sooner than the start of Feb which is what I'm hoping for.
I'm applying now anyway and have 2 interviews this week so can't see them waiting 3 months for me to start!
No idea how we're going to manage over the Christmas break though if I've just started a job... I'll have no leave and of course we have no family to help babysit.., well see how these 2 interviews I have this week go I guess...

In other news. We have finally after a year of interviews and training started our careers as foster carers. We have 2 little boys join us on weekends starting from Friday this week.
We've met the boys and they're quite boisterous so I think the plan is to take them out lots to burn off some energy.

Since I was last on here Greta has turned 4. Now have a 6 yr old and a 4 yr old!
Where have the years gone!

All for now
